How much amount of NaCl should be added to 600 g of water ρ=1.00g/mL to decrease the freezing point of water to -0.2 oC? ________. (The freezing point depression constant for water =kgmol-1 )

Solution

Tf=0.2°C
Tf= ikfm
0.2=2×2×ω58.5×1000600
ω=0.2×58.5×6001000×4=1.2×58.540=01.76 g

Freezing point depression is the phenomena that describes why adding a solute to a solvent results in the lowering of the freezing point of the solvent.
